Isn,t it strange how a plant or a smell can transport you back through time , The smell of Privot takes me back to walking to school ..... :o)

Oh Amy, that really triggered a memory of me hiding from my brother behind the privet hedge in our little front garden! He always found me :)

How did you guess, Amy? Guess I was a creature of habit in those days - now I hate routine and try never to do the same thing on the same days :)
